Giving yourself a facial at home is a wonderful way to treat yourself, relax, and improve your complexion. Plus, giving yourself a facial at home is so much less expensive than going to a spa, where facials can run upwards of $50.00 dollars. Try a facial at home today with these simple steps.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Towels
  • Facial Scrub
  • Eye Cream
  • Clay Mask
  1. Step 1

    First, fill the bathroom sink with hot water. Now take your towel, and drape it over your head, and lean over the sink. The steam from the hot water will open your pores to prepare your skin for the next steps of your at home facial. Keep the towel draped over your head for about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Now, smooth on your scrub, any type is fine, and focus on your t-zone, which is your forehead, your nose, and chin. This is where most clogged pores and blackheads occur. Scrub gently to exfoliate the skin, and remove debris that might be congesting your skin.

  3. Step 3

    Now, completely rinse off the facial scrub, and pat your skin lightly dry. Take a small amount of eye cream and dab it on the area around your eyes and massage in gently.

  4. Step 4

    Follow the eye cream with a clay based mask, smooth this onto your face to help draw out debris and impurities from your skin. Allow to dry completely, and then rinse thoroughly. Once you have rinsed the clay mask off completely, dry your skin, and apply your favorite moisturizer. That's all it takes for a simple, inexpensive at home facial!

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure you don't burn yourself in the hot water.
